Annie has a knack for making the impossible…possible. From developing cutting-edge programs and e-learning to researching learning technologies, Annie’s design skills and ability to see the big picture put anything within her reach. Take this Clemson University alumna with a Bachelor of Arts in Speech & Communication and Master of Arts in Professional Communications—and add 20+ years of experience in the communications, public relations, and adult learning fields—and the result is Annie, a versatile learning expert. From building training programs that shift company culture, to equipping leaders with the tools they need to bring their vision to life, Annie adds value to everything she touches, including our community. Annie is a graduate of the Riley Institute at Furman’s Diversity Leaders Initiative, where her team launched a Leaders in Literacy initiative at a local school. A fervent list-maker who loves checking all the boxes. Never afraid to ask “what if…,” Annie pushes us to think big and make the impossible a reality. In her free time, Annie enjoys running races, hiking, and watching college football with her family.
